beauty is a light in the heart.

Visited churches tonight for the Holy Thursday Visita Iglesia and took some candle shots. =)
Thank you for all your comments, visits, and faves! Will visit your streams later. Need to catch some sleep. =)

We were so high up that we could barely hear the ground assault.

What a view, I think, trying to look out instead of down. Vulture droids decorate the evening sky, and a light wind drowns out every noise in the vicinity.
Except for the noise of my squad.
“I scuffed some yellow off my arm during the climb,” Checkmate whines.
“This new paint just doesn’t hold up,” Habit agrees. “I think they changed the ingredients.”
“But it’s more vibrant now,” I say.
Clawdite shuts off his comm device and then joins us.
“I’ve checked in with Breacher squad,” he says. “Now we wait.”
He does a double-take at Checkmate’s arm. “Did you scuff my paint job?”
“It’s the new paint,” Checkmate says. “Habit said so.”
“Yeah,” Habit says. “They changed the ingredients.”
“But it’s so much brighter now!” Clawdite snaps.
I throw my hands up in validation. “Exactly.”
We get quiet. There’s something in the distance . . . Marching.
I peer between a stack of crates and see a small patrol of battle droids.
One of their heads jerks in our direction. “Hey, what’s that?”
“I don’t see anything,” another answers.
“Over there; the bright yellow.”
Habit and Checkmate exchange a look.
Once the droids are within a few meters of our hiding spot, we roll a handful of droid poppers along the ground toward them. Sizzling fills the air, and they collapse.
Then the bickering starts.
“I wonder how they saw us,” Habit says, like he doesn’t know exactly how.
Clawdite and I shake our heads.
“We’re never hearing the end of this,” I say.

Teth has been on my list of things to build for years now, so it was a blast getting to finally build it. Thanks for checking this out!
Clicked this picture during the Diwali festival at home a few days ago...
Diwali or Deepavali is an important festival for Hindus/Jains/Sikhs. Diwali involves the lighting of lamps to signify the triumph of good over evil. These lamps are kept on during the night and one's house is cleaned, both done in order to make the Goddess Lakshmi (Goddess of wealth & prosperity) feel welcome.
Uhm, yesterday's scenes look good. I don't clearly know how they are, 'cause I didn't watched them on my computer, but they look nice.
Today has been HORRIBLE: it was really, really hot and I was forced to eat in the sun because of a "family lunch". Omg, something to forget as soon as possible.
Tomorrow I'll probably go to Rome, because the hot weather today hasn't been enough. I don't know if I'll survive, but if I'll meet Woody Allen (the reason why I'm going there, so excited!!), I'll tell you. :D
I started the night trying to take a series of shots around the periphery of my face with a view to stitching them into a panorama. It didn't work out as desired so I continued to faff and the exposures became longer and longer.
Beauty dish above, flash shot through the tank of a broken water pistol bottom of the frame. finished with a good sweep of the lpbrushes black fibers and Ryus Lightworks v2 torch.
I would've added another flash behind my head for a rim light but it's batteries are in one of Rileys Christmas presents :)

I don't like my face and I got hit in my right eye today with someones hand. But I like the light and the colours in this, so stfu and enjoy it.
Earth Hour is a global event organized by WWF (World Wide Fund for Nature, also known as World Wildlife Fund) and is held on the last Saturday of March annually, asking households and businesses to turn off their non-essential lights and other electrical appliances for one hour to raise awareness towards the need to take action on climate change. Earth hour was conceived by WWF and The Sydney Morning Herald in 2007, when 2.2 million residents of Sydney participated by turning off all non-essential lights.[1] Following Sydney's lead, many other cities around the world adopted the event in 2008.[2][3] Earth Hour 2010 will take place on March 27, 2010 from 8:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m., local time.
